Difference between “try to do” and “try and do” I'm surprised to learn that "try and" is older. I had assumed that the "to" was part of an infinitive. "I will try to play basketball" easily switches to a gerund: "I will try playing basketball." "Try and" always sounds like two actions. "I will both try and play basketball." |

When do I use “I” instead of “me?” Does this apply to the plural? "Who's there?" "It is we"? |

Is there a correct gender-neutral, singular pronoun (“his” versus “her” versus “their”)? A potential re-word on this sentence would be "Students should save their questions until the end." "Each" and "every" are just asking for trouble. |
